Grebel & Gemutlichkeit - Food and Family the German Russian Way

Just wanted to share a quick note about the Volga German Conference that was held in Sheboygan on September 24. The local Sheboygan television station filmed the event and it is now available online to stream and watch. Click on this link
to connect. If you don't see the presentations immediately, search for Volga German or Volga German cooking.

I was honored to be part of a panel with Emma Theume and Peter Kaland. Emma was historian at Trinity Lutheran Church and has a wealth of knowledge of how the Germans from Russia came to Sheboygan.

My Grebel & Gemutlichkeit presentation is also available for streaming. Many of the attendees recalled their families making this food. It was such a fun event. It was very smart of the committee that planned the conference to have it taped so we could share it beyond those who were able to attend. I hope you enjoy!
